Capt JR reports a bit of a grind onboard the Viking Star today. Some spots still had some mixed size Sea Bass, lots of Cunners, and a few Blackfish, some Mackerel and Pollock. But, action was definitely a little off. Not a terrible day as everyone definitely got enough for dinner. Trips are cancelled for Friday and Saturday due to the windy conditions expected.

Everyone caught some fish for the buckets, and as usual some did better…

Capt JR reports a good day onboard the Viking Star. We spent most of the morning bouncing around some deeper drops and found Sea Bass, some Porgies, Ling, and Blackfish everywhere we went. Everyone got a nice catch of quality Sea Bass. A couple of the drops definitely had more Blackfish life than others, and…

Big congratulations to Elmont from New York for…
